More quotes by Albert Einstein
The goal of pacifism is possible only though a supranational organization. To stand unconditionally for this cause is the criterion of true pacifism.
Albert Einstein
A new idea comes suddenly and in a rather intuitive way, but intuition is nothing but the outcome of earlier intellectual experience.
Albert Einstein
I have repeatedly said that in my opinion the idea of a personal God is a childlike one.
Albert Einstein
Laws alone can not secure freedom of expression in order that every man present his views without penalty there must be spirit of tolerance in the entire population.
Albert Einstein
Organized people are just too lazy to go looking for what they want.
Albert Einstein
Bear in mind that the wonderful things you learn in your schools are the work of many generations. All this is put in your hands as your inheritance in order that you may receive it, honor it, add to it, and one day faithfully hand it on to your children.
Albert Einstein
Then there are the fanatical atheists whose intolerance is of the same kind as the intolerance of the religious fanatics and comes from the same source.
Albert Einstein
Genius abhors consensus because when consensus is reached, thinking stops. Stop nodding your head.
Albert Einstein
If [quantum theory] is correct, it signifies the end of physics as a science.
Albert Einstein
Through the release of atomic energy, our generation has brought into the world the most revolutionary force since prehistoric man's discovery of fire. This basic force of the universe cannot be fitted into the outmoded concept of narrow nationalisms.
Albert Einstein
I believe in Spinoza's God, who reveals Himself in the lawful harmony of the world, not in a God who concerns Himself with the fate and the doings of mankind... to Rabbi Herbert Goldstein (1929)
Albert Einstein
The minority, the ruling class at present, has the schools and press, usually the Church as well, under its thumb. This enables it to organize and sway the emotions of the masses, and make its tool of them.
Albert Einstein
Almost all the other fellows do not look from the facts to the theory but from the theory to the facts they cannot get out of the network of already accepted concepts instead, comically, they only wriggle about inside.
Albert Einstein
The grand aim of all science is to cover the greatest number of empirical facts by logical deduction from the smallest number of hypotheses or axioms.
Albert Einstein
On quantum theory I use up more brain grease (rough translation of German idiom) than on relativity.
Albert Einstein
By academic freedom I understand the right to search for truth and to publish and teach what one holds to be true. This right also implies a duty: one must not conceal any part of what one has recognized to be true.
Albert Einstein
We come now to the question: what is a priori certain or necessary, respectively in geometry (doctrine of space) or its foundations? Formerly we thought everything nowadays we think nothing. Already the distance-concept is logically arbitrary there need be no things that correspond to it, even approximately.
Albert Einstein
I received your letter of June 10th. I have never talked to a Jesuit priest in my life and I am astonished by the audacity to tell such lies about me. From the viewpoint of a Jesuit priest I am, of course, and have always been an atheist.
Albert Einstein
The aim (of education) must be the training of independently acting and thinking individuals who, however, see in the service to the community their highest life problem.
Albert Einstein
Information is not knowledge.
